This week I have been working on my lidded project. It has taken many many attempts, usually ending with a lot of frustration. But yesterday I finally made a good base, it is round and wide and sort of vase-shape, and a lid to match. When making my knob, I accidentally bumped it so one of the sides went flat, but it was okay because I just made the entire knob a square shape. I think it looks pretty cool, it's like a swollen cube-ish shape because there are no hard edges. I am definitely excited about it because last time i made a lidded project, the lid was really heavy and this one is a lot thinner and lighter on the bottom so it won't be as difficult to remove. I also finally glazed my tall project, I thought it was a blue glaze but it came out black, I'm not sure if I just didn't read the bucket or if it turned out that way because the project is made of red clay.
